So I finally overclocked my CPU, and still, my frames are still quite low. Especially with addon airports and high-end addons like PMDG. In the VC of PMDG aircraft I'm getting 17 to 20 FPS. Outside it's more like 20 to 40. I really don't know what I'm doing wrong. I used NVIDIA inspector, i use Steve's DX10 fixer, and I've applied the standard FPS-increasing tweaks to my CFG file. I don't know what to do. Please help! :(

Pull your water effect back to around 2

drop LOD Radius back to default 4.5

 

That would be a good start. Water is a frame rate killer !

If it were me I would start again with a fresh fsx.cfg no tweaks not even high mem fix as its already added in fsx-se.

You could add affinity mask and fibre frame time fraction and then test your frames again

I found that when I removed all my tweaks the frame rate jumped . I even changed texture max load back to 1024 because I couldn't tell the difference from 2048 and no still no blurries, not even on PMDG 777

good luck

 

Also, you've got two entries in your FSX.cfg for [DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti.0.0] - you should delete the one which doesn't apply. The entries are for 1280x720x32 and 1024x768x32. Is one of these really your monitor's full resolution? It's worth checking with Afterburner to see if your GPU is running at or close to 100% when you're getting the low FPS.

Might sound daft but could it be because it's installed on a external drive?, try installing a copy onto an internal drive and see what happens.

Lots of good advice.

It seems to me that the major problem is the obvious one: Not enough video card. 

Kind regards,

I doubt that is the issue since FSX isn't like P3D and relies on the GPU as much.

I've run FSX on a 2GB GTS250 and now a GTX670 4GB card and have roughly the same performance with either card. Even with the older 2GB GTS250 I was able to maintain 25 to 30 FPS with the PMDG a/c in aftermarket airports. The only difference is when switching views the newer card renders the models textures faster, but FPS is the same.

Hi vortex681,

I deleted one of the entries in my .cfg file and changed my screen resolution to 1600x900, which is my monitor's actual resolution. I checked on Afterburner to see how much of my GPU was being used. In the cockpit of the PMDG 777 after making the suggested tweaks the people above you gave, I'm getting a stable 18-19FPS, and outside I'm getting a stable 28FPS. Only 25% of my GPU was being used. Still not good enough.

Does bufferpools work in SE?

[bufferPools]
UsePools=0

And if you use Win 10 Creator's release,

Try Win-G key combo to enable game-mode.

 

here are some tips;

TEXTUR_MAX_LOAD=1024

aircraft reflections= off

what are those multisample lines doing there? out with that

Texture bandwith maximum 80

upper frame rate limit 30 and set 1/2 vsync in Nvidia inspector

fiber frame time fraction=0.15

LOD radius 4.5

swap wait time out?? get rid of that, it doesn't do anything

wide view has to be TRUE

Bufferpools ? get rid of that, it won't help you.

Try all this and then see how it goes, on modern machines less tweaks is better and you've got way to much of them.

Try setting Afterburner to monitor the individual cores of your CPU and see what the results are then.

With those frame rates, does it look smooth or is it a slideshow? If it looks smooth then try to forget about it and turn off frame rate monitoring! It's easy to become preoccupied with frame rates - I certainly became obsessed with them way back in my FS9 days resulting in incessant tweaking, but since moving to FSX many years ago I don't routinely monitor frame rates any more unless there seems to be a problem and I avoid tweaking like the plague!

This will make a big difference   fiber frame time fraction=0.15 or =12

Hi everyone!

So I restarted with a fresh FSX.cfg. I made some tweaks such as adding AffinityMask=84, changed my refresh rate in NVIDIA inspector to 1/2, and added WindowedVSync=1 in my FSX.cfg. There are a couple other things I did such as I overclocked my GPU in afterburner by 175MHz and the memory clock by 150MHz. I also set my framerate limiter in FSX to "unlimited", and surprise surprise - In the cockpit of the PMDG 737, I'm getting a consistent, solid 30FPS, and outside, I'm getting about 50-60FPS, even at addon airports like FlightBeam KPHX! It's amazing how just a few tweaks could make my game run faster. I also set my filtering to Trilinear with no antialiasing. Even WITH antialiasing, I'm still geting 25-28FPS in the cockpit and 40-50FPS outside! :) Here are a few screenshots!
